Apparently "imagine greater" means more reality shows to Syfy.

The network has announced a slate of new programs from rocker Tommy Lee's "Culture Shock" to a series about movie monster creators.


After the success with other unscripted shows like "Face Off" and "Ghost Hunters", Syfy will launch "Haunted Collector", "Legend Quest" and "Culture Shock with Tommy Lee" later this year, according to Hollywood Reporter.







Syfy original programming president Mark Stern told Variety Syfy's recent rebranding allowed the network explore more reality platforms.

"I think that it's very important to us as we go deeper into reality that it feel appropriate and relevant," Stern said.






"Haunted Collector" is about a family who seeks out haunted items to store in their own museum.

"Legend Quest" is about a real-live symbologist who searches for mystical artifacts.

"Paranormal Witness" is a documentary-like series about people who have dealt with paranormal experiences.

"Dinner With Deepak" is hosted by bestselling author Deepak Chopra.

"Tyler Shields" documents the life of the art photographer.

"Monster Man" will follow "creature fabricator" Cleve Hall and his group of monster creators.
